how to view and edit manually the sharedpreference of a Flutter macos app?

In Android, it is possible to view or modify the shared preference using Android Studio. How can I view the shared preferences file using Android Studio?

How can the same be achieved with MacOS apps when I used the SharedPreference Library?

Where is the date even stored in the computer ?

Edit:

I found how to read it:

defaults read uk.co.mytestapp Where can I find the shared_preferences raw json file when running as a MacOS desktop application?

But I still don't know how to write to it.

Solution

  • The preferences file is

    ~/Library/Preferences/uk.co.mytestapp.plist

    or if sandboxed

    ~/Library/Containers/uk.co.mytestapp/Data/Library/Preferences/uk.co.mytestapp.plist

    You can open it with the Xcode.
